Is anyone here in a high-performing profession, medical, finance, engineering, you name it, and still struggling with sh? I go to work every day sadly with fresh cuts and scars, sitting with coworkers who are just talking about the job or the positive things going on in their lives, and I'm over here fighting something they have no idea about. It feels incredibly lonely. I think it's even harder in high-performing fields, because there's this pressure to have it all together. Showing any kind of vulnerability feels like weakness. Sadly, I’m in a situation that sh gives me the control I need to stay good at my job. Does anyone else feel this way?

Trigger warning in advance! Well. Was at a really fun concert and the thoughts took over and I went to the bathroom and sh during the openers of the concert. Then I came back to my seat and just put on a smile and went about the concert. Ugh I am just so tired of sh controlling my life. I did so much that the inner part of my skirt clothing was just covered with the residue from my sh. Gosh, I just feel disgusting and awful. Why did I sh? I was having a good time I just don’t know why the thoughts took over. Just needing some advice from someone !
